Todor Todorov Karagochev
The pages of the novel resurrect before the reader the events of a hundred years ago from 1912 to 1925 in the Balkans, in particular, in Bulgaria during the two Balkan wars, the echo of which was the Great War, which drew all countries and continents into its orbit and gave birth to a lost generation.
Three wars led to dramatic events in Bulgaria: a coup d’état and the establishment of despotism, against which the heroes of the country rise to fight. Brave, fearless, daring, elusive, they defy the executioner’s power and prepare the people for the uprising to overthrow the junta. The noble at heart and free spirited, they wage a heroic battle for freedom, risking their lives to save the life of another.
It is a hymn to the beauty of nature of the Balkans. It is a wide panorama of life of the era and society. It is based on real events. It is dedicated to the memory of Alexander Stamboliysky, it is dedicated to the memory of all the freedom fighters of all the times and countries.

The Orbs of Frenchtown
When Patricia and Russell Vincent took an evening stroll through their neighborhood in 1981, they had no idea where that walk would lead them. They spotted a few old headstones standing alone in a grassy field, some dating back to the late 1700s, and their curiosity was sparked. This evening would lead them to an important discovery in their hometown of Monroe, Michigan.
The Orbs of Frenchtown reflects on the importance of place by exploring the early settlement of Monroe called Frenchtown, through its destruction during the War of 1812, and the ghosts the Vincents found along the way. This historical work shows the links that connect us to history by looking into America’s past. The determination of the Vincents’ quest ultimately stands as a tribute to the contributions of this special couple during the later years of their lives, and to the town they held dear.

The Jewish Confederate Story
The American Civil War was a defining moment in US history, and its underlying issue of slavery divided the nation. In this insightful historical investigation, author Samuel Jay Korson who writes from the perspective of his own Jewish faith, sheds light on the experiences of Jewish individuals living in the Confederacy during this tumultuous time.
Southern Jews found themselves in a complex position, facing a conundrum that forced them to navigate a double-edged sword. Living in a majority Christian society where many participated in slavery and anti-Semitism ebbed and flowed, many Southern Jews opposed slavery on moral grounds, while others participated in various aspects of a slave society to assimilate into their communities.
Despite practicing their faith and observing important Jewish holidays like Passover, Hanukkah, and Shabbat, Southern Jews were caught in the middle of a divisive issue that even Jewish clergy struggled to reconcile. Using Jewish law (halacha), rabbis in both the North and South vehemently argued both sides of the slave issue.
Through this compelling exploration, readers gain a deeper understanding of how the Civil War affected not only the United States, but also the Jewish community as a whole. By examining the experiences of Southern Jews during this pivotal moment in history, Samuel Jay Korson reveals a unique perspective on a complex and multifaceted topic.

The Greatest Treachery in Human History
The initial goal of this book was to discover the ultimate purpose and meaning behind the abductions of human beings into UFOs—the alarming reality of which is still hardly known to the public. But as this study developed, it led to a series of revelations which brought us to an unexpected interpretation of this phenomenon.
Indeed, it became all too obvious that there was a connection between these abductions and the absurd path that today’s human society is taking. More and more measures are being implemented that are threatening the health, well-being, and freedom of human beings the world over under the guise of ‘security’ purposes. Those responsible for this are not only our leaders, but occult forces--which are exposed in this book.
We were therefore led to unveil what we can indeed refer to as the “greatest treachery in human history”: extremely powerful dark forces have been acting on Earth for a very long time unbeknownst to our population. These forces, identified in this book, are directly interfering in the governance of our world and are directly opposed to the harmonious evolution of Humankind, putting us all in grave danger. This book sheds an unprecedented new light on how this all relates to the tragic events Humanity has been going through since 2020.

The 2,003-Yard Odyssey
“It was a season where the impossible became possible. It was a season where the hard to believe became believable.”
--Marv Levy, Pro Football Hall of Fame Coach.
The 1973 Buffalo Bills made pro football history. They had an offense that broke several important rushing records during that memorable year. And they had a superstar running back by the name of O.J. Simpson, who broke a glass ceiling of sorts by becoming the first man -- and indeed the only man -- to ever rush for more than 2,000 yards in one 14-game regular season. That glory-filled accomplishment provided the celebrated culmination to this epic tale of a week-by-week journey from an initial goal to its triumphant ending.
In The 2,003-Yard Odyssey: The Juice, The Electric Company, and an Epic Run for a Record, several members of that Buffalo Bills team recall their memories of that year. They discuss how that 1973 season began with a bunch of question marks, then how a boast by one of their offensive linemen led to a challenge for the whole squad to address. A major focus in this book are the feats of the incomparable O.J. Simpson, who earned pro football fame and glory with his record-breaking 1973 performance. This story recounts how Simpson set a mark that was thought of by most people to be impossible to achieve. It was an odyssey unlike any other in NFL annals, and it is explored in concentrated depth and detail within these pages.
Joe Zagorski is a member of the Pro Football Writers of America and the Pro Football Researchers Association. He has written several previous books about various teams and players of the NFL. He is also a contributing writer to the website Pro Football Journal and the administrator of the Facebook page, The NFL in the 1970s. He resides in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Marv Levy, who wrote the foreword for this book, is a coaching legend in both the United States and in Canada. He led the Buffalo Bills to four straight Super Bowl appearances from 1990 to 1993. He is also an honored member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
